WORKSHOP ON SYSTEM/SOFTWARE ARCHITECTURES (WSSA) 

                                        Co-located With
                      THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON
SOFTWARE ENGINEERING RESEARCH AND PRACTICE (SERP) June 21-24, 2004, Monte Carlo Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

THEME


You are invited to participate in the Workshop on System/Software Architectures to be held as part of the International Conference on Software Engineering Research and Practice (SERP ’04), June 21-24, 2004, in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. SERP ’04 is part of the 2004 International MultiConference in Computer Science.

WORKSHOP


The Workshop on System/Software Architectures (WSSA) will provide an international forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas and discuss the problems in this field. This will be the third workshop in the series - the Workshop on Adaptable Software Architectures was held in 2003 as part of SERP'03 and the session on Adaptable Software Architectures was held in 2002 as part of SERP'02; both received excellent response and the top papers were published in special journal issues as well.

     Architecture is the first step in the development of almost any system including software systems. Consequently most of the properties of the final system/software are affected by the architecture and a "good" architecture is one of the most important requirements for a successful system/software. However, designing and developing "good" architectures is an engineering/research problem in itself since the definitions of "good" and of "architectures" are themselves subjective. In this workshop the theory and experience on system/software architectures will be discussed. The topics for the papers include
- systems such as human-based, machines/hardware, and software,
